Hello. It's a couple of weeks that the API purge does not work. The scripts w:ru:User:IKhitron/purge.js and Участник:Facenapalm/purge.js do nothing. The page was purged using
new mw.Api().post({ action: 'purge', format: 'json', forcelinkupdate: 1, titles: 'משתמש:IKhitron/טיוטה' });
both the dates were updated, but the category still didn't get the page, as expected.
Thank you.
Which category where? 1) a clear list of steps to reproduce, 2) actual outcome, and 3) expected outcome would be welcome.
The category Category:{{#time:H:i:s}}.
{{#time:H:i:s}}[[Category:{{#time:H:i:s}}]]new mw.Api().post({ action: 'purge', format: 'json', forcelinkupdate: 1, titles: '<The created page name X>' });
Summary: the API call does not update categories any more.
Would assume this cannot happen any longer since 62c1bd5abc0cb228c562d079aa4ec9e38208ef0e
It is also possible that the category page itself is cached and needs a purge, this is more likly when the page was empty and non-exists, because it emits 404.
